Catch!

By Jaxter - 18/03/2009 05:41 - United States

Today, I was walking up to girlfriend's house when her terrifying Marine Corps dad threw a football at me. Not being very athletic, I surprised myself by catching it. He gestured for me throw it back and I watched it spiral wildy to the left and hit my girlfriend's mom in the face. FML

I sympathize. I'm a girl. I'm straight. However, I have the football-catching abilities of a sack of flour. Throwing is something I am even worse at. I feel bad for you because her scary father is probably going to get a whole lot scarier after this instance :(

You should have told him to teach his wife to catch better. Anddddd I hope you can run better than you can throw.

Either yell "touchdown!" and throw your arms up, or blow your imaginary whistle and yell "pass interferance!", then run.

wow this post wasn't all the funny but #8 seriously made me laugh out loud. Anyways man not everybody is athletic. Don't worry about it. I'm sure there are things you can do that the "marine corp dad" would suck at. Just laugh it off and say oops!

How does a football "spiral wildly to the left"? I mean, I'm no Heisman winner, but doesn't a spiral make the throw straight and predictable? Also, wives of terrifying marine corps guys should have already learned to be more alert around the house.

You can't throw a football? Not to judge, but that's something most people should be able to do.

#18: He's not exactly a pro football player, I'm pretty sure he has no idea what a spiral means and so... used that word to describe it's flipping as it slammed his GF's mother in the face...... Hahahahaha. Don't play football. ;3

So are you an unathletic guy, or an unathletic female? If it's the latter, the whole incident is pretty funny. If it's the former, it's still funny, but if I was the father I wouldn't let a wimp like you date my daughter!

Props to #8. Seriously though, if a guy can't catch or throw a football halfway decently, then he's too much of a nerd. I'm a girl and can throw and catch it pretty well. Stop playing Warcraft and play some sports with friends, even if you suck.
